Need muffler recommendation for SL500

Per 2004 SL500: Want a bit more tone from exhaust. Not loud/raspy. I just want to hear the engine go through it's paces. Realize that there are lots of mufflers on the market but would like user's input.

Thanks

Sorry. Posted this in the wrong place. You may want to consider removing your resonators as a first step. Go to YouTube and listen to all the posts. IMHO, don’t remove your stock mufflers as I did on my e55 and I replaced them with glass packs. Sounds awesome but too loud for me and the drone was deafening. If anyone wants to buy my e55 setup, let me know.
